Fossil Digger,

I hate to break this to you -- but it is illegal to invade another country that doesn't pose an imminent threat.

They call that type of action "waging a war of aggression" and it's clearly prohibited in the Constitution of the United States as well as U.S. Codes and international law.

We went into Iraq because we thought Saddam had WMDs. He didn't. But we stayed anyway. Now Saddam is long dead, and we're still there. What is the goal?

If you think that fighting in Iraq will keep terrorists out of the U.S., you are sorely mistaken. It's doing just the opposite. We're pissing off the entire Middle East, and giving them even more incentive to recruit and train more terrorists.

Now, every time a Muslim suicide bomber wipes out 20 Iraqi moms and dads, Al Qaeda tells all the young impressionable kids that the Americans killed their parents.

Where do you think they get their never-ending supply of suiicide bombers?

And just answer this one question: How does the president and General Petraeus define "victory in Iraq"?

If it isn't defined, we can never achieve it -- or we will just arbitrarily declare victory once we've spent ourselves into a Depression. We aren't achieving any objectives because there aren't any objectives to achieve. There's no way to wipe out terrorism because there's no way to know who the terrorists are, or who will become a terrorist in the future.

The only possible way to achieve "victory" in the Middle East is to kill every single Muslim there -- men, women and children alike. Are you ready for that? Is that what you want to see?
